Yes, it started when I was trying to explain what Evolution WAS NOT to some creationists. They had come up with the usual “Why don’t we see Transitional fossils or monkey men if we descended from monkeys”. When I could not get the concept of mutations causing variations over long periods of time and realised I was wasting my energy I turned it around and told them that they were right, god did exist, Darwin was nuts and Evolution was “only a theory” (aaaagh not again!!) spread by the devil.

They were in my house so I printed of a picture of the Fronkey for them as proof that Evolution was wrong and modern science can be very dangerous when it plays at being god. Yes, you are correct and I am wrong. I told them that as I did not have the money to build a Creation Museum so I would buy a farm and raise Fronkeys. They left the house and never came back. I wonder why?? Now I have so many of them and feel so responsible for them!!! It has been a rough week as they accidently say the new Muppet movie through the window and the Alpha males who have inherited the stubborn gene are giving the evil eye to the Mr Ken Ham, the pink pig in the next field.

What they never grasp is that Evolution is a matter of understanding and never a matter of belief. Claiming that the Theory of Evolution does not explain how life began is like claiming that gravity does not explain why the Earth goes around the Sun. It only explains how life evolved and still does since it started.

Anytime I watch that video I know I will get angry. I suppose it’s because the children only get to hear one viewpoint. They don’t get balanced views from their “teachers”. What is more concerning though is not only is this viewpoint extreme, it is also completely wrong. Creationism is complete crap. In fact it is not even a form of teaching but purely the indoctrination of young minds and is therefore a form of child abuse. There are a growing number of fundamentalist cults that have a specific agenda to have creationism taught in schools and some are even opening their own or funding others with this in mind. I will not tolerate it when I meet them.
